Apple pie. What’s more classic than apple pie? Funny thing is I usually gravitate away from apple desserts…unless it’s apple pie. I love the stuff! It’s so simple and so decadent. This Easy Skillet Apple Pie is no exception from that description. It seriously…
Recently, Progresso sent me one of each of their new Recipe Starter cooking sauces to try. I was pretty excited about finding some new recipes to use with them. My first try using them was with the creamy three cheese and it was a…
Neener, neener, neener! My neighborhood has Blue Velvet Cupcakes! I’m so excited to tell you about Blue Velvet Cupcakes. I know Nashville has a lot of great places to buy cupcakes, and one in particular is a favorite of mine, but they aren’t exactly…
Sorry for the not-so-great pictures, but you know when I’m at my mom’s and we’re enjoying tasty beverages, the last thing I’m thinking about is grabbing my nice camera and tediously setting the stage for a decent picture. I’m all about the drink! I…
It’s officially Fall, so you know that means it’s time to bake with pumpkin! I spotted the Candy Corn M&M’s recently and although I’m not crazy about candy corn, I am crazy about specialty flavors. I bought a bag and after brainstorming with Shannon…
I’ve had my eye on the Pioneer Woman’s Spicy Dr. Pepper Shredded Pork for some time now. The weather’s cooler in Nashville and my slow cooker is taking up permanent residence on the counter for the next few months, so why not turn her…

Oh I love a good low calorie pasta dish! Right under desserts, pasta is a weakness of mine. Especially pastas covered in a creamy, thick sauce. So speaking of, Roasted Chicken Florentine Pasta made my list. Fettuccine, spinach, and roasted chicken enveloped in a…
No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you. This may look like my Italian Zucchini Crescent Pie, but instead it’s Zucchini & Caramelized Onion Quiche! Since my recent turn from a zucchini hater to a zucchini lover, I’m cooking it all the time now. Usually I…
You know I’m the calorie-counting queen (when I’m not splurging on desserts, of course), but I never really take it as far as using a sugar substitute when baking. There’s plenty of low calorie desserts out there that taste great, with real sugar. See…
Oh goodness is this the best chicken dish ever. Seriously. Chicken is no longer boring thanks to Chicken with Honey-Beer Sauce. I mean I thought this dish would be good, but I had no idea it would be that good. Bonus…it’s low enough in…
The picture of these Pork Chops with Roasted Apples & Onions was drool-worthy in the magazine. My interest will instantly go up for a recipe that has an odd mix of ingredients, too, so I had to make this to see how the apples…
